Chapter 926: Chapter 554: Going to the Bai Family (3)
Ping responded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, the young master’s health is good too. Miss, just look at me, really old and muddled, let’s go inside and talk. Although the young master doesn’t say it, but I can tell that he misses you."
Old Mrs. Wen looked at Ping with full expectation: "Ping, you’re not fooling me, does my brother really miss me?"
"Of course, I’ve watched Miss grow up, liked her since she was young, how could I deceive Miss?" Ping paused and continued, "Just a few days ago, the second miss came back to beg the young master to go to the Wen family to plead for help. I don’t quite understand the details, but I understood the young master scolding the second miss."
He said, ’After all these years, your aunt hasn’t taken the slightest advantage from our family. At this time, what face do I have to go see her? What we’ve done, we must bear ourselves. Don’t make me embarrass our aunt.’
Miss, listen to what the young master said, if he didn’t miss you, how could he say such things? Miss, don’t hate the young master, back then, it was the young mistress who kept picking faults, the young master couldn’t help it either."
"Ping, thank you, I understand." Ping’s words made the old lady calm down, people inherently have selfish tendencies, the sister-in-law is someone good at talking, she can talk up even the dead, so it’s understandable that the brother was swayed by her.
As for herself, she happened to be someone who dislikes taking advantage, so when agitated by the sister-in-law back then, she made harsh comments and didn’t come back. Thinking carefully, the siblings have been arguing for years, but truly it’s quite meaningless.
But to say the brother did right, that’s impossible too. However, years have passed, and everyone’s old now, what is there to worry so much about?
The old lady pointed at her grandson and granddaughter to introduce them: "Ping, this is my grandson Wen Yan, this is my granddaughter Luo Ye, take us inside please."
"Hello Grandpa Ping." Luo Ye and Wen Yan greeted in unison.
"Yan, hello, Ye’er, hello, Miss, you are blessed, these two children, just one look and you can tell they’ll do well." Ping said, extending his hand, "Miss, please go first."
Old Mrs. Wen asked while walking: "Ping, have you been guarding the gate all these years?"
"Yes, the young master did let me rest, but I like this job, I’ve been doing it since young, sitting by the gate makes me feel at ease."
The old lady couldn’t help but sigh: "I remember before, every time I came home, Ping was the first to greet me. This time is the same, maybe Ping is the only thing that hasn’t changed in this family?"
"Miss, it’s all in the past." Ping sighed softly, not knowing how to continue.
He understood, his Miss must have remembered things from the past. Although he persuaded the Miss that the young master misses her, she knew, based on what she knows of the young master, clearly, even after the second miss ran into trouble, the young master didn’t plead with the Wen family, not because he was worried she would be in difficult position, but because he couldn’t get over the face-saving hurdle. In the young master’s view, if he visits the Wen family voluntarily now, then the Bai family’s face is lost.
It’s clear to everyone that the Wen family’s influence is stronger than the Bai family, but the young master just doesn’t want to admit it. For all these years, whenever anyone dared to mention the Wen family, the young master would get angry.
The young master being so stubborn, of course there is a reason. When Miss married into the Wen family, it happened to be when the Wen family was having a division, so the young master felt the Wen family was inferior to the Bai family, or perhaps this is a way of ringing the bell to stop one’s ears.
"Miss, you are back." Before entering, a gray-haired woman came out to greet them.
Old Mrs. Wen, smiling, shook her hand: "Ah Hua, after all these years, you can still recognize me at a glance, it’s really impressive."
"No matter how many years, Ah Hua can always recognize Miss at first sight." Ah Hua said, wiping her tears, "Miss, you never came back all these years, you are truly hard-hearted."
Ping scolded dissatisfiedly: "Ah Hua, how can you talk to Miss like that? You know why Miss didn’t come back."
"In this family, among the servants who know Miss, there’s just us two. If you talk like this, and others hear it, they might take it seriously."
Ah Hua nodded repeatedly: "Right, right, my big mouth, I just missed you, Miss, that’s why I said things without thinking. Miss, don’t be angry at Ah Hua, I’ll hurry and report to the young master."
